Your best bet is to ask on ome-devel and/or look at the open tickets:
http://trac.openmicroscopy.org.uk/ome/query?status=accepted&status=new&status=reopened&component=Bio-Formats&col=id&col=summary&col=status&col=type&col=priority&col=milestone&col=component&order=priority
In general, pretty much everything except for JPEG-based formats (JPEG,
NDPI, Hamamatsu VMS) will work in the latest stable version; for very
large images those won't work because the entire image needs to be
decoded in order to get a tile. Support for NDPI and VMS is much better on
the develop branch (i.e. trunk builds), but opening tiles from a JPEG still
requires that the entire image be decoded first.
Regards,
